The minimum cement content (kg/cum) for a ship dock (underwater construction) with 40 mm aggregate is prescribed by the Indian Standard as:
Minimum Cement Content as per IS 456:2000 (Clause 14.2.2)
The minimum cement content required for concrete work depends on:
Exposure conditions (mild, moderate, severe, very severe, or extreme)
Type of concrete, i.e., plain concrete or reinforced concrete
As per IS 456:2000, for very severe exposure conditions, the minimum cement content specified is:
350 kg per cubic metre of concrete when using 40 mm maximum size aggregate.
